A fantastic review for my Blemish Control Cream
from Beauty Couture!
''....from fab Irish skincare company Skin Essentials. We raved
about
them back in May and we have come to adore their amazing
Blemish Control Cream €70.
Basically a wonder pot for breakouts, it contains a host of active
ingredients such as retinyl esters which refine skin texture and reduce
old
acne scars. It’s also formulated to keep oil secretion under
control,
eradicate the ‘bad’ acne-forming bacteria, decrease
inflammation
and aid shedding of dead skin to prevent ‘sticking’ in the
pores.
In short it’s fantastic.

Skin Essentials serum beats Creme De La Mer in comparison test!
''I was sent Creme De La Mers new radiance serum which is
worth €260...yep you read right..and while yeah, it's grand,
I have to say, I prefer the Skin Essentials serum.''
''......IT ROCKS! As far as skincare goes, Mariga's line is really
effective and I don't know why THE WORLD hasn't heard about it.''
Another day, another rave for Skin Essentials by Mariga!

(ahem) very discerning and clearly intelligent beauty journalist Dawn Hill.
Skin Essentials by Mariga Daily Nutrient Serum with Peptides -
OK, can I just establish, I'm not being paid to advertise this skincare line, but it may
seem like I am as I blab on about it to anyone that will listen and have mentioned it
a few times in RSVP magazine and on the blog, but people, I do this only
because IT ROCKS!
As far as skincare goes, Mariga's line is really effective and I don't know why
THE WORLD hasn't heard about it. This serum is the best I've used.
A lot of serums on the market have silicones in them, which as mentioned above, is a
complete joke! How are any good ingredients in the bottle supposed to penetrate the skin
with silicones lurking in the mist, taking up all the pore space! This serum has around 10 ingredients and is super concentrated so a little goes a mighty long way.
Serums are the way to go as they provide a potent cocktail of ingredients straight
to the skin, feeding it with goodness. Everybody should use a serum from your early 20's up!
and since using it my skin has improved loads. I was sent Creme De La Mers new
radiance serum which is worth €260...yep you read right..and while yeah, it's grand,
I have to say, I prefer the Skin Essentials serum as I know theres no ingredients
to fill it out, no 'secret' ingredients that are a 'secret' and it does a fantastic job in
helping my skin be the best it can be! Ah, think I just shed a tear!

Review of Enzyme Exfoliator by skinnipeach.com
''I blogged a few weeks back about the amazing facial I had at Wexford Beauty Salon,
at the more than capable hands of Mariga Sheedy. After the facial, Mariga gave me
some products to try out for myself at home and to say I'm impressed is an understatement.
All her Skin Essentials products are made with very little ingredients, but what ingredients
are in the products, are some of the best in town for skin. Her Enzyme Exfoliator is one
of my favourites. This has one ingredient... Pumpkin. Nothing else. Zilch. Nada!
The enzymes in the pumpkin are like little critters munching away on all the crap
lingering in your pores. I've actually binned my exfoliators with the little scrubbies in them.
Yeah, they're fine, but this little gem blows them out of the water in the SAVAGE EXFOLIATION department. I find that with scrubby-exfoliators, I need to use them
twice a week, and that's what is usually recommended. I literally use this little beaut
once every two weeks. Yep, once, every 2 WEEKS! My skin feels so smooth and cleansed afterwards. Unreal. It's also helped to fade all the little marks I had on my skin from
picking spots. Its rotten, I hear ye, but sometimes they have to be picked, end of.
The exfoliator comes with a little dropper and, like all the Skin Essential products,
they're super concentrated so you only need to use the smallest amount for the best results.
The serums from this range are the bomb too, review coming up on one soon.''

Great Review for Skin Essentials facial by beauty journalist Dawn Hill
''This facial was absolutely FABULOUS! I loved every single minute of it.''
''My skin looked the best its been in months, absolutely glowing and peachy and I couldn't stop admiring it in the mirror!''
I had the pleasure of meeting Dawn ( a fellow beauty nerd )! last week and did one of my signature Skin Essentials by Mariga facials for her. You may know Dawn from her articles for RSVP, Stylebible.ie or her beauty blog skinnipeach.com.You can read the full review here:
Monday, November 22, 2010Fab Facials at the hands of Mariga Sheedy....... I do love a good facial. Nothing like getting your face massaged to the high heavens with luxurious potions and lotions, candles flickering in a softly lit room and Asian music playing in the background transporting me to an island off the coast of Malaysia. Heaven. But, facials aren't supposed to be relaxing. OK, they can be, but our lady friends across the waters in the US and in Europe see facials as an improtant part of their skincare routine and have their favourite facialist on speedial as you would your favourite hairdresser. Facials to them are clinical. They have every pore squeezed and de-gunked followed by double-whammy cleansing and super duper masks. They emerge from the salon with skin cleansed to within an inch of its life. This is what I needed. I've had my fair share of the 'relaxing' facials where you can see no results whatsoever, apart from a sleepy head. I want a facial where MY pores are squeezed and pesky blackheads zapped. Those little feckers are the bane of my life!(although they're really tiny and probably only visible to a therapists and my own scrutinizing eyes). So, I decided to take my blackhead infested nose and hormonal congested chin to Wexfords premiere skin clinic and beauty salon, Beauty.com (
).
to read more about Mariga, her treatments and her state of the art skincare. Her salon is well worth the trip and its one I'll be making again!

Hi Mariga, I'm loving my skin!! Your acne cream is like a gift from heaven. I can't believe that after all the years my skin is finally clearing up. Moving to Wexford was worth it just to discover ur beauty salon :-) E xxx
Thank you! I'm so glad that I was able to help solve your skin problems. Don't forget, keep up your home routine to build on those results. Mariga. x

Hi all, I've been to loads of beauty salons in Ireland and abroad, mostly for facials and waxing, and I have to say that the best facial I've EVER had was in a cosy salon in The Faythe, Wexford Town. The beautician is called Mariga and the salon is called beauty.com. Her facials are out of this world and with all the extra touches that I've never even had in expensive spas. It was extremely relaxing and my skin felt and looked great for ages after. I'll def be making the long drive just to go there. It was the first time that I felt really pampered by a professional. Oh, and she has really warm hands too, so perfect for a nice massage!
